You clearly haven't met their fans.
People who like BrokeNCYDE REALLY like BrokeNCYDE.
BrokeNCYDE are a story. Like, you listen to their whole catalogue and there's an obvious story of musicians growing together and maturing. Are you saying a Henry James novel is inaccessible because you don't wanna read all those pages?
I don't really know that many people who know them or even like them.
They are one thing. Three, occasionally four things, but one thing. And sometimes a crunk pig.
They stick out because you hear something else. They wrote songs as timeless as rock songs can be.
They don't think about this as like "oh, we're a joke, we're an indie band, we don't wanna be anything, we write these songs that no-one understands", they're thinking "this stuff kicks ass."
It's true that they sold X number of records instead of fifty times X or whatever, but, still, there's people out there for who it's like...a very important thing.
